Therapists in Sacramento, CA

I love you, but I don't really get you; I hear this pretty often in the healthiest of relationships, and even more so in intercultural or interfaith ones. I know firsthand how wonderful and rewarding it is–and, at times, how painful and challenging. Maybe you’ve asked each other: “How do we connect again, now that we have kids? What’s changed and why is it affecting our sex life? Are we on the same page about my family? How important is this to you?” Being in love doesn't just take work. It takes understanding and acceptance. It takes holding each other and ourselves accountable for our own growth. Let's relearn each other.

As a licensed MFT, I provide both short-term and long-term psychotherapy in private practice. My practice serves the Greater Sacramento Valley region where I offer both in-person and online therapy via video appointments to California residents. I use a clinical structure but eclectic style in treatment approach and believe there is not a one-size-fits-all method that works for everyone. I believe people enter therapy at different stages of life and look to gain practical skills within a safe relationship.

Are you dealing with some stressful life events? Are you feeling overwhelmed and don’t know what to do? Well, I am here to listen and walk through this with you. Our thoughts, emotions and actions are all connected with each other which can make daily life a struggle in challenging moments. Let me offer my time, empathy, and skills for you to learn how to navigate this challenging time. I offer a nonjudgmental and authentic space in order to help you find a path forward.

"The most precious gift we can offer others is our presence." We believe everyone deserves someone who is present, patient, open, non judgmental, and willing to listen and hear you. Overwhelming feelings can surface a different times in our lives, and needing support through those moments is not a sign of weakness but a sign of being human. If you are struggling with communication, not feeling heard, feeling stressed, not knowing what to do, grieving, feeling alone, or feeling exhausted by all the none stop thoughts in your head... We are here for you.

I believe that the relationship between therapist and client is key to creating meaningful change, and I strive to make therapy a safe, non-judgmental space where you feel empowered to explore, grow, and get to know yourself better. I came into this field of work because I am passionate about helping people navigate life challenges, to embrace their own true selves and live authentically. That is not easy to do in this world. My therapeutic style is warm, client centered, and collaborative. I will work along with the client to customize sessions to support needs and goals of treatment.

Running on autopilot, feeling numb, feeling miserable, and perpetual suffering. Feeling overwhelmed. Nothing I do is right? I’m not good enough. Feeling like you can’t change a situation? Your life feels out of control, things are blowing up in your face, and you feel lost. Your life seems to be more difficult than you imagine, and you just want to make things right. You are either content or dissatisfied, no other way out or around. You’re just stuck. You want to be more present with yourself or the people around you. "I am not what happened to me, I am what I choose to become." - Carl G. Jung

I promote growth and healing through compassionate insight, reflection and strategic direction! Acquired Knowledge seems most beneficial when put to use to benefit ourselves or others, for as we serve and engage with others, we more readily discover our true selves. I subscribe to Emerson's notion; "Do the thing, and you will have the power" rather than give me the power and then I will act! I enjoy being a contributing factor to others growth and advancement and relish witnessing the blossoming of added confidence, enhanced self-esteem. and true growth!

Our mission is to provide quality online mental health and substance abuse services while breaking down the barriers of traditional, office based therapy. Traditional mental health and substance abuse treatment tends to focus on what makes you sick, what you are lacking but at The Mindful Lemon, our clinicians let you sit in the driver’s seat, focusing on your strengths and assets to help you become the best version of you! This can be via traditional talk therapy, medication management, mindfulness techniques, an emphasis on health, wellness and fitness or any combination of the above.
